Unforgettable Lyrics: The Scene Aesthetic

When I think of a band, it’s not the music that stands out to me the most, it’s the lyrics. Don’t get me wrong, I love jamming to a good beat that comes with, but I’ll keep the music appreciation to the musicians and music majors in college. As a writer, the words they sing speak louder and mean the most. Thus, I’ve decided to start a weekly blog post called “Unforgettable Lyrics.” I’ll post ten of the best lyrics of a band, any band, whether they’re performing or have long since made their run.

The band formerly known as The Scene Aesthetic, renamed Prince Of Spain in 2013, got their start through posting songs on MySpace – which we all know is literally ancient history now. The duo of Andrew de Torres and Eric Kimberlin have been featured in The Wall Street Journal and Rolling Stone. Most of their music tends to be on the more acoustic side, really letting the lyrics I’m about to share hit home with how slow and hard-hitting the music is.

“I know that I have my own flaws/But they just build my motivation.” (So Peter, You’ve Become A Pirate)
